Sup all,
today I witnessed the funniest thing, two boy racers were in a CRX with the stereo blasting and trying to look cool in front of girls at the lights in Hobson Street (Auckland city). I was behind, him while next to him was a Saab 9-5.
when the light turned green, the CRX shot off, but the guy in the Saab was having none of it, he shot off right at the same time and before they had even got 10 meters, the CRX was beat, then the Saab tuned right and left the main road for a side so then I pulled along side him at some traffic lights in Queen St. (Auckland city again) I looked at him, he started revving his engine at me, I was not intimidated and revved mine harder the light went green he moves off tires squealing, I put the pedal about halfway down we move past the lights, it is then I hear his engie struggling so I pushed the gas a small bit harder and shifted into second and left him for dead..........
What was I driving a Skyline, 3000GT?????? Nope I was in my dads new BMW 330i Touring

yeah that sounds like a ricer. I've never really had a ricer want to race me they just dont like falling to a lincoln behind when the light goes green, so we end up racing and half the time i just play with them, make them think they actually have a chance.

it's just like the guys who go out and buy civics. they don't understand you have to SWAP.

How true... You say "swap the engine" and they say "whats an engine?"

Sounds like fried rice to me. :D
And beaten by a Saab, well I guess it all depends on the Saab.

I love the new Saabs... those 4 bangers turbo are sweet... and they have a nice euro look that seems to be copied by the hyundai elantra GT....
it sux that their cars are so expensive.
